Hi,

Can anyone offer any advice, I’m wanting to move to Canada, I work as a Mechanical Engineer, I’ve been trying to secure a job however I’ve ha no luck so far as I’m not living in Australia.

Where is the best place to go in Australia for engineering jobs? Should I move then look for work?

I don’t want to get there and not secure employment and have to return?

Firstly make up your mindas to whether you want to move to Canada or Australia. They are two very very different countries.

Secondly, for Australia - you cannot just move here and then look for a job. You need to secure a visa first. Many people do not have a job to come to, they get the visa then look for a job once they are here. However, you need to see if you qualify for a visa first Assuming you are under 45, start here - https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/
